a Gentleman Describes tho Process and
the Sensations He Felt.
A we'll known gentleman who lives at
the Fifth Avenue hotel came into the cor
ridor from the street recently, looking rs
1t he had been scourged for Il week. He
sat down, took II long BREATH and lighting
a long cigar began to puff vigorously. A
reporter asked him if he was i'll. He re-
piled:
'lll? No, have just taken dirt bath.
Don't know what II dirt bath iss Then
I'll tell You. concluded that my system
had run down and that needed some-
thing to start my blood to circulating
rapidly, In fact a general vitalizcr Twas
directed to take mud baths. These baths
arc very expensive. The attendant stood
me up and began to cover me with what
Is known as Fullcr's earth. Twas incascd
IN this substance with only my head
sticking out. Then l was placed in Il
trough, II tube was inserted into the mud
anu an electric current turned on. The
sensation was most unique and almost
1ndescribablc. The earth around my body
soon became charged with electricity and
snapped and coquetted with my skin in a
most tantalizing way. At times there
would seem to be a race Of small tacks
down my back, and then the sensation of a
Drnsh gently passing over me- My flesh
simply acted as a conductor and enjoyed
all the little pranks that Il series of cur
rents from powerful electric batteries can
produce. After an hour was stripped of
the mud and 'massaged' for an hour by
Two stalwart attendants. 4 .louchc Of
water was administered, and went home.
'l3ut the bath cannot be finished in one
day. | went back the next morning and
was given i cold water bath and rubbed
again vciy thoroughly. Then my feet
were placed in water charged with clec-
tricity. The attendants then seized sey-
eral large sponges, dipped them into the
water and began to rub me. l. was an
electric bath, and the sponges fairly made
me howl with the shocks received. The
next day went back and finished the
@'h. l was placed in VAT of large
grained salt and rolled about until nv
fiesh glowed with irritating excitement.
"A rub down and water bath then finished
my mud bath. 1t takes only three days.

THE SOLITARY HEARER.

Once there came minstrel singing.
When the skies were fair,
All about his clear notes linging
Through the summer air.
Throngs rejoicing gathered around him,
Hailed him as their king:
With his own bright flowers they crowned him.
Planted in his spring.
One sweet note, too softly uttered
For the eager crowd,
Family sounding pinioi!s futtered
Thro II their shoutings loud.
Stra'~ht to me the blithe breeze brought it,
Where stood apart;
And ny waiting spirit caught it,
Hid it in my heart.
Distant lclls Of fame are singing
For that Elinstrelsy;
Fragment Of the dcathless singing
Fameless stays with me.

The Interior of Venezuela.

The vast interior Of this great land Is
almost ureSplored. A good story is told
| OF certain inland river for whose pur-
chase large sum was offered by England
and larger demanded by Venezuela.
surveyors were sent out ut great expense
to ascertain the course of the stream.
They came back and reported ''thcrc was
no such river in existence" The bargain
had to be suspended, while I; new map was
drawn. Amid the mountain ranges, upon
mighty 'llanos'-vast plains like our
western prairics-thcrc still reside rem
nants of the ancient Caribs, whose nnces-
tors captured the islands where Columbus
found tho race when he came. They re-
tain their language and their customs,
living by the chase and by predatory war
fare upon their neighbors, the Motilunes,
who are cannibals, or the farther Goaiiras,
who are not much better
IN the vast rivers, alligators, deadly
snakes and innumerable fish find con-
genial homes; and upon their banks rise
grand forests of ebony, rosewood, mahog-
any, gold wood and trees of hundred
other varieties, where tigers, leopards,
5aguars and pumas roam at will, pursu-
ing the great herds of deer and antelOpes
that form their prey. Boas twenty feet
long creep beneath the branches, or lazily
dream away the hours after q hearty meal.
The trees are inhabited by monkeys and
bright winged parrots, both of which
make excellent food. The Indians of
these hunting grounds arc US fierce and
relentless as the beasts on whom they
make war.
But this is all far away, and during our
Two months travel in Venezuela, not one
glance at monkey, tiger, snake or parrot
though we We're in some pretty wild
places. Such animals retreat before ciyi,l-
zation, and do not appear to be any more

THE END OF THE WORLD.

Sir William Thompson now furnishes
the cheerful scientific information that
we cannot reckon on more than 5, 000,-
600 or 5000, 900 more years of sunlight
to come. HE thinks it would be rash
to assume that we had had more than
10000, 900 years of sunlight in the past. :"
And we entirely agree with him. In
deed, we think it rash to assume that
we have had more than 10 800 $50. But
what is score of millions to a scien-
tist =? Mere bagatelle. The fact, how
ever, that interests us personally and
individually is the grave assertion that
we have only 5000 900 or 6 900 900 of
years more of sunlight before us. When
we come to think that for the last 500,-
900 or perhaps 900, 900 of those years
the sun will be failing to an extent cal
culated to make this globe very chilly,
if not too cold for human habitation, it
is plain that the time allowed us may
be shortened to that extent, and we may
be reduced to the startling prospect of
only 1000, 900 more years-hardly time
enough to realize the blessings of ire
form within the party" Really there
ought to be something done with these
scientific men. If there is anything
they delight in it is in destroying the
comfort of their neighbors. You never
hear of anything being made to appear
more beautiful, healthful, or pleasing
by them. 1t is always something re-
voting. They rub their hands with
suppressed glee when telling you that
each dropof water is filled with loath-
some reptiles and hideous wriggling
things; that drop of vinegar is whole
menagerie condensed that the food we
eat is alive with minute vermin, and
the very air we breathe of th-deal-
ing germs. And now one of them has
struck upon the inspiring idea that the
world will come to an end at certain
time-that in fact we are doomed after
the lapse of 5 100000 years. Why a
man cannot be a scientist and be pleas
ant also is something that nobody can
understand. They are the most malic-
ious people on earth. And as for Sir
William Thompson we shall decline to
give him credit for his prophecy even If
it comes Baltimore Ne,Us.

THE DEATH OF SOCRATES.

By way of introduction to an essay
on Hesiod, ''the Earliest Greek Moral
ist,'' writer in Macmillan's Magazine
thus speaks of the life and death of
Socrates
''The most notable event in the his
tory of the Greek race is undoubtedly
the death of Socrates. Let us briefly
recall the circumstances of that death
or rather martyrdom.
Socrates was an Athenian, who spent
the greater part of long life chiefly in
instructing his fellow eountrymen in
the principles of high morality. He
gathered around him a small circle of
admirers and disciples-men mostly
much younger than himself-invited
them to examine the foundations of the
accepted morality, rejected it when it
was unsound inculcated both by ex-
ample and precept doctrines of temper
ance, soberness, and chastity-such as
command respect even in these days of
brilliant moral illumination-an if we
may believe his disciple, Plato, was
convinced that the supremest happiness
was uprightness of life, and guilt the
greatest misery. The formal dogmas
of his eountrymen as to the nature of
the gods he does not seem directly to
have interfered with, and, indeed, to
have accepted on this subject the pop
ular view. But in spite of such mod
Grafton in speculation, and nobleness of
life, he was at the age of seventy ac-
cused of corrupting the young men of
Athens, of worshiping gods which that
city did not worship; and on this
charge was condemned to death.
Socrates, like Sir Thomas More,
might have escaped the extreme pen
atty of death had he been willing to
plead guilty. In large jury of nearly
six hundred persons, majority of five
votes only found verdict against him,
and had he appealed for mercy there is
no doubt that it would have been grant
ed. But to appeal for mercy would
have been to admit guilt; and to admit
guilt would have been to discredit that
divine commission to better his coun-
trymen which he believed himself to
have received. Further, he had always
declared that death was in itself no
evil; to live unjustly was evil; to suffer
unjustly was small misfortune in
comparison with doing unjust acts; and
so he submitted to his sentence with
dignified cheerfulness, which, as de-
scribed by his friend and disciple, Plato,
has been the object of the veneration
of all the centuries of learned and good
men who have since been privileged
with contemplation of his great exam
ple.''

THE ANDovER HISTORY.

We gave last week some comments
on the Christian Union article of Rev.
j. M. WILTON, d D., on Andover, and
promised to give his resume of the con-
troversy. 1t follows;
Five years ago the Rev. Newman
Smyth was chosen by the all but unan-
imous vote of the trustees-one not
voting-to fill the Abbot chair of Sys-
tematic Theology in Andover Theolog-
ical Seminary. Pending the ratifica-
ton of this choice by the Board of Wis
itors, strong opposition broke forth,
especially in the columns of the Con-
greqatiOnaliSt, to this reinforcement of a
new tendency of opinion at Andover,
which had already excited hostile COM
ment among some observers. 1t was
no secret that Professor Egbert G.
Smyth seemed to be on the verge of
new opinions, declaring for substance
that, since Protestants had renounced
the idea of purgatory, the doctrine of
the future state had not received salts
factory treatment. The antagonism to
the appointment of his brother New
man was based mainly on his regard
ing the continuance of probation be-
yond the grave as, at least in certain
cases, a possibility The Visitors, how
ever, pronounced Mr.. Smyth's views
of Christian doctrine accordant with
the creed and the traditions of the Sem
mary, but referred the matter to the
trustees for reconsideration. These
having reaflirmed their choice of Mr..
Smyth, the Visitors finally, by vote of
two to one, refused to ratify it. The
recorded statement of reasons for this
refusal was, that Mr.. Smyth, cOnceiv-
ing of truth 'sentimentally and poeti-
cally rather than speculatively and
philosophically," had a way of looking
at theological questions mot hopeful
for the success of a theological teacher"
Mr.. Smyth's rejection having been
speedily followed by his choice to
conspicuous pastoral charge in New
Haven, the first note of a further COM
plication was sounded at the next meet
ing of the Foreign Missionary Board,
in Portland, where an unprecedented

fascination and the episode of the dia-

still rosy complexion is admirably pre-
served, and is perhaps owing to the mild
climate, which has renewed the ancient

The graceful and sympathetic at
tempt of the Dean of st. Paul, in recent
number of MaemiHdn's, to elucidate
"Sordello," recalls an epigramatic criti-
cism on this early work of Browning, re-
corded by Canon Farrar in his lecture on
the poet, given in this city two years ago.
The learned divine quoted from a per-
sonal friend who had confded to him that
the only two lines of the whole of "Sor-
dello' he understood were the first line,
"Who will shall hear Sordello's tale un-
fold" and the last: "Who would has
heard Sordello's tale unfold" and that
neither of these were true.
